Singapore, 23rd November 2005 - Epson, the world leader in digital imaging and printing solutions has announced the launch of EPSON AcuLaser CX11N and CX11NF. Designed to bring full office colour-printing solution in a high performance machine, the EPSON AcuLaser CX11N and CX11NF deliver unprecedented office productivity effortlessly.

"To have four different machines to print, scan, copy and fax is no longer efficient enough for offices to be productive in today's business environment." says Mr Daniel Ho, Manager, Business Products at Epson Singapore. "The multifunction and network ready EPSON AcuLaser CX11N and the CX11NF (with an additional faxing capability) have the crucial attributes that offices need to lower cost, support the bottom line and drive productivity."

Improve Productivity     
Users of the EPSON AcuLaser CX11N and CX11NF will experience increased productivity as only one machine, instead of three or four, needs to be installed. "Flying Start Technology" ensures both models lead with first-page-out speeds of 17 seconds for colour and 9 seconds for monochrome printing. Also, with first-copy-out speed of 29 seconds for colour and 12 seconds for monochrome, and 25ppm monochrome and 5ppm colour printing, both new products are fast machines that decrease wait time for printouts. The additional colour faxing capability of the EPSON AcuLaser CX11NF enables any office to maximise business potential by producing attractive colour fax that command attention.       

Supreme quality and speed with new AcuLaser Technology
Quality is achieved with "Wrap Transfer Technology" which prevents toner scattering by eliminating the gap between the intermediate transfer belt and photoconductor unit, auto-recognition of data format through MSPT (Multi Screen Printing Technology) to optimise colour conversion, and RIT (Resolution Improvement Technology) that offers a leveling effect on text characters and curved lines to clean up any jagged and fuzzy edges, while EPSON ASIC technology which compresses data and allows print data to be stored enhances speed.

Quality is further assured with the use of AcuBrite toners that contain uniform ink particles and special pigments to ensure excellent image resolution and lively colours. Scanning capability at optical resolution of 600dpi and enhanced resolution of 9600dpi make sure that every detail is captured while the accompanying push scan function conveniently transfers scanned documents in pdf, tiff or jpg format directly to your PC.

Affordable ownership 
Low power consumption supported by the intelligent sleep mode feature and class leading photoconductor life span adds to the low running cost attribute of the EPSON AcuLaser CX11N and CX11NF. Instead of spending on multiple machines, users can reduce initial investment through these multifunction solutions.

Applications Galore
Capable of printing high quality brochures, product catalogues and business cards among many other office collaterals, the EPSON AcuLaser CX11N and CX11NF are able to develop the business potential of any office.

Benefits all round
The EPSON AcuLaser CX11N and CX11NF offer easy integration to office systems with multiple connection ports including USB2.0, standard Parallel and Ethernet. Ease of use is also assured with the five-line operation panel that indicates current status and toner level, among other useful information.

Fast high quality performance in an affordable and compact multifunction machine, the EPSON AcuLaser CX11N and CX11NF is available at all Epson authorised dealers at $1,598 and $1,798 respectively.
